The Pro is a Honking big phone

Re: The Pro is a Honking big phone.

I've disliked the trend of thinner and taller. My favorite was my Nexus 6.

Since the Pixel 6 Pro has almost no bezel, the actual screen is almost as wide as my old Nexus 6.

My most used app is my Interactive Brokers trading app where I look at a lot of stock charts and screen width is very important for me.

I preordered a Pixel 6 Pro 128.

Since I upload my images to OneDrive in close to real-time, 128GB is all I need for my photography.

I agree. The width seems to be staying fairly stable, but I don't know how much taller these phones can get. I'm generally looking at stuff in the middle of the screen anyway and if I'm taking pics at most I'd do a 16:9. I don't need a 24:9 screen

I went to Curry's today to look at a 6 Pro in person. It was so beautiful. The screen was lovely and the size is comparable to my iPhone 8 Plus. So I know I can manage it ok. Can't wait till Thursday when mine should arrive.

Wow they really have that phone clamped down! Only thing missing is a ball and chain! Haha.

I know. Can't pick it up or hold it but I could play with it. Camera has a new option called motion that allows 2 types of motion picture. One where it blurs the object in motion and one where it follows the object and blurs the background around it.

Same size as iPhone 8 plus

Re: The Pro is a Honking big phone.

I'm not arguing with you. The width on the n6 made it feel larger than any other phone. It didn't fit in pockets, it was awkward one handed, and it never fit car phone holders.

Agree. It was a handful.

Re: The Pro is a Honking big phone.

I ordered my case from Google. Should arrive same day as my phone.

I worry about the size but I will use a popsocket and that will help me to handle it. I use one with my 4a 5G and it is invaluable

I have the Spigen Ring on my Pixel 2 and absolutely love it! The Pop Socket made my arthritic fingers hurt. I definitely plan on using the Spigen Ring on my Pixel 6 Pro when I receive it, along with the Speck clear case and Zagg Screensaver.
